1. Freelance Folder is a multi-authored blog dedicated to helping entrepreneurs and freelancers. This blog is a real goldmine for anyone in the freelancing business, including freelance translators/interpreters.

Among the “gems” you’ll find in this post, aptly enough titled “Give your freelancing career a boost“, by Ritu B. Pant “a blogger who writes about blogging, technology and a lot of other things”:

A plan is a must if you want to grow and get more business

Build an effective strategy to target your clients.

A startling revelation: “The customer is not always right”!

In another article (“My Top 5 Biggest Freelancing Mistakes“), Chris Garrett, the famous freelance blogger and internet marketing consultant warns us against “under-pricing, over-committing, failing to sell, always saying ‘yes'” and “not following-up”

A comprehensive, well-researched article (like all “Marketing Profs” articles) where Scott Trimble tells us the best way to name your business (in our case your translation business, of course). It’s not as simple as you may have thought.

Go to the MarketingProfssite and look around, I’m sure you’ll like it. And don’t worry, the style is very clear, certainly not overly “professoral”, inspite of the name 🙂
